A novel flavonol glycoside named camellianoside and three known flavonol glycosides were isolated from the leaves of Camellia japonica. The structure of camellianoside was established as quercetin-3-O-beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1-->3)-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->6)-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside by spectroscopic and chemical methods. The antioxidant activities of these glycosides evaluated by the diphenylpicrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging reaction was higher than those of L-cysteine and L-ascorbic acid used as the reference antioxidants.

Bud blight caused by is a serious disease affecting tea plants and causing severe damage to production output and quality. Phages play an important role in controlling the development of bacterial diseases in plants. Previous studies have shown that the tolerance of phage-treated tea plants to bud blight was notably greater compared with that of the control group.

Green is no longer the only color used to describe tea leaves. As tea plants with different leaf colors-white, yellow, and purple-yield significant economic benefits, scholars are growing increasingly curious about whether these differently colored leaves possess unique aromatic characteristics. Headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) combined with GC-MS was used to analyze the volatile metabolites of buds and leaves from 7 white-leaf tea plants, 9 yellow-leaf tea plants, 4 purple-leaf tea plants, and 7 normal (green) tea plants.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of the combination of shaking and various anaerobic treatments on the aroma quality of gabaron oolong tea (GAOT) by chemical and sensory evaluation. The results showed that elevated anaerobic treatment harmed GAOT aroma, emphasizing undesirable attributes such as earthy, fatty, etc. A total of 85 volatiles were identified by gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS), and the relationship between aroma attributes and volatiles were revealed by PLS regression projection and correlation network.

Tea is a widely consumed beverage worldwide due to its rich secondary metabolites. Gallotanin: 1-O-galloyl-6-O-luteoyl-α-D-glucose (GLAG) has strong antioxidant activity and good resistance to a wide range of bacteria and malaria. Despite its potential, there have been few reports on GLAG in plants.

Perchlorate was reported to be taken up by tea (Camellia sinensis L.) plants and mainly stored in leaves. However, the change of contents in perchlorate in fresh tea leaf-made tea and tea infusion remains unclear.
